Dr.Petrulio was great! Got me in and out, made the visit easy and addressed my concerns. Only thing that was alittle off was rooming, I had an 8:50 arrival time and I seen a patient that was there after me with a later appointment time being called to be roomed. Granted the appointment was as at 9:15 however, I wasn't roomed till 9:30. Other wise than that overall experience was good!
Very responsive to treatment methods. Gave me step by step approach to care of my problem. Has a clear plan to address my problem
Every single thing was perfect

I had a great experience. I didn't need to wait for an appointment or to be seen when I arrived. I immediately got an Xray, got my pain diagnosed and received a cortisone shot by Dr. Petrulio. Overall, a great experience,

Dr. Petrulio was professional, knowledgeable and friendly. And my appointment was right on time. I am very happy with my experience with Dr. Petrulio and would definitely recommend him.
Listened. Provided the care I need. Needed an injection Administer to cause me the least pain. Professional and compassionate
Dr Petrulio made me feel comfortable with the procedure by showing me how to focus on something other than the pain from the injection. I really appreciated this. He is a good doctor, and I highly recommend him.
Good smooth staff nurse and Dr too

Everyone was super helpful
He is an amazing dr
I was able to get an appointment in a timely manner. The staff were all very pleasant and professional, and all my questions were answered.
Honest and efficient diagnosis. Excellent staff too.
The physician told me step-by-step what could happen and what will be done
My surgery was managed excellently and all went well
The doctor was wonderful and surely knows what he's doing
Punctual visit, very quick response
The wait room is nice and quiet. The wait time for my appointment was 30 minutes. But, I believe this was caused by the previous patient and her needy questioning.
It was all good. Staff friendly. Dr P listened to my concerns and I was informed about the next steps that are available to correct my medical condition. I will not hesitate to return.
Everything was done properly. Dr Petrulio explained things to me thoroughly so I could understand my situation.
To answer my questions when asked
Dr Petrullio was great and knew exactly what I needed for my concern.
Always kind and patient
Excellent doctor. Highly skilled and able to explain the diagnosis and treatment in a way that was easy to understand. Made us confident in his assessment and encouraged questions.
Liked the given process needed, but was too quickly gone over. Think I remember it all.
I had to see Dr. Petrulio for an accidental finger injury and he could not have made things any smoother for me. From my appointment to my surgery, he and the staff were amazing!
Very nice and efficient staff. Doctor listened and very respectful and knowledge.
Very helpful nice to talk to explain things very carefully so I understood went over everything that they were going to do to help me.
Very punctual. Knew my history from before, was efficient and confident in his decisions regarding next steps, explained reasoning behind his decision-making and contrasted my situation with a more serious fracture. Support staff were efficient and pleasant, making for a relaxed encounter.
My first impression of Dr. Petrulio is that he listens carefully and verifies everything. He analyzed the issue with my finger and described the surgical procedure and the choices for anesthesia. He allowed me to take photos my X-rays to share with my family.
First visit…..listened to me. He was very thorough. I felt so much better after I left his office.
In and out in no time. A really good experience and medical care I have had in a very long time. Thank you

Everyone was extremely pleasant especially the nurse who checked me in and set me up with another provider in Dartmouth.

Very professional. Good listener, clear explanations and instructions. Did not "talk down" at all
I like Dr Petrulio and I believe that I'm getting good care from him
